Love Beyond the Mask by Adelaide Sinclair

Chapter 362

Chapter 362

Ludwik, with deep-seated aversion, pushed her away forcefully. His face was a mask of disgust, a reaction anyone would have if publicly humiliated on their wedding day. His expression was as cold as ice, his eyes calm, but his lips curled into a sneer as he said to the woman, "No wonder I feel sick every time I touch you."

Elaine's face went deathly pale, as if she had just fallen from heaven into hell. She stammered in her defense, "I am clean, Ludwik, I haven't..."

"The video isn't fake, and it isn't doctored," Ludwik, who worked in tech, could tell at a glance.

The murmurs from the crowd reminded him to check the date.

And sure enough, it was from yesterday.

The woman had always claimed she was pure, doing everything for him, promising to remain chaste after marriage.

He had even felt guilty yesterday because of his fling with Whitney...

But it seemed they were both guilty.

It turns out Elaine wasn't the pure and innocent victim she portrayed herself to be, not the humble, pitiable figure that tugged at one's heartstrings. The woman in the video was a stranger to him, crass and vulgar.

A flicker of revulsion passed through Ludwik's eyes. How much more was this woman hiding from him? Who was she, really?

At this moment, he was filled with deep doubt.

He could have forgiven her infidelity, truth be told, he didn't care much about that.

But what he couldn't tolerate was being played for a fool, the deceit of pretending to be virtuous and innocent.

"Ludwik, let me explain this after, can we just get through the wedding first?" Elaine pleaded, her voice trembling with anxiety.

Just then, several police officers burst in. They quickly made their way to the stage, flashing their badges, and asked sternly, "Who here is Elaine?"

Elaine's face turned ashen.

Someone pointed her out.

The officer handcuffed her, saying, "Elaine, based on a kidnapper's testimony and an anonymous tip, you are a suspect in a child abduction case from a month ago. You'll need to come with us for questioning!" Elaine panicked. Hadn't the case involving Danny been resolved?
